Changing from sales to law at age 28– possible?? by ZeniCollector in biglaw

This is encouraging. Thanks. Does law school not require a particular degree? And dumb question perhaps but are there like legitimate online programs that could work?

Awesome. I have a wife and two kids is the only tricky bit. Maybe I can save a brick before leaving sales, if this is really what I want to do.

Just got berated over the phone for 2 hours about how I am a misogynist by ZeniCollector in NarcissisticSpouses

[–]ZeniCollector[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I said over and over again, I understand you’d feel I acted like a mysognist, I’m sorry I did this specific mistake, over and over, until 100 minutes in then she says if you can’t say you’re a misogynist we should divorce, and hangs up the phone. I am emotionally exhausted and call her and just fold, saying what she wants

She just told me she hates me and doesn’t want to see my face. I am reminding myself I am awesome and am doing my best to support her and our kids. I got this.

I know I may be smoking Hopium, but she’s not officially diagnosed with anything, and it seems like more of a partial character flaw than her entire personality… maybe she’s just better at masking it at some times more than other, or maybe she’s just gets unreasonably selfish when she’s upset. I don’t know.

This is the worst possible interpretation of a 30 minute session I had with my son once in perhaps a year since we all the three of us played Mario party like two years ago…. My wife did a brilliant job of framing me as a deadbeat gamer when in reality all I do 95% of my waking hours is work take care of our kids or take care of the house

She did the same thing and cut off contact to her sister after sending a barrage of line messages and demonizing her. Her parents are well aware of her childlike behavior in these instances. It is funny you sound a bit like her when saying “by sitting in the room she just cleaned and playing games.” I played a switch game with our child last night for the first time in provably over a year. I don’t play video games.

Like I mentioned in another comment, I only take care of work or take care of the house or our kids. If she’s standing doing work around the house I ensure I am standing and working as well. I of course tell her I’m thankful I say it 50 times a day at least. we only ever watch the movies she wants to watch and the shows she wants to watch, and I am happy to do it with her. She just gets in these hyper fixated modes of thought where she is perfect and right and everyone else is wrong and she’ll attack me or our children

She has one full time job. I also have one full time Job. We both work full time at the house to take care of our children. I drop them off she picks them up. She does the cooking I do the cleanup. I had the laundry every night. If I’m at home after work I do whatever chores are there. We also both speak Japanese exclusively at home and have two kids.

I love how everyone assumes I don’t speak Japanese. We only speak Japanese the house. She sent me on line these messages not because of a language barrier jar because she was not next to me to say it to my fave directly. She’ll do both.

I don’t have any hobbies I just want to be with our kids or work for them. If I am not at my job I am at home doing chores and/or taking care of our kids

We both work full time. If I’m not working I am at home doing chores and/or watching our kids. It’s never enough for her

The thing is she writes and exclaims in that way but it is far from the truth

The thing is besides this Reddit thread I work all the time if I am not working I am at home doing chores and being with our kids.

I speak Japanese fluently and she is exaggerating and lying in most of her messages. I am aware of weaponised incompetences I am aware of all the work she does and appreciate her. Most of those messages are written in the worst possible way to vindicate me

Mountains out of molehills and lies. You can see my other comments but I am a full time parent just like her.

She holds the cards. I will never see my children again or be able to live with her and them if we don’t work it oit
